Meet Our Students
Jennifer Schultz '21
Mechanical Engineering
When she was younger, Jennifer Schultz didn’t want to be an engineer. Yet here she is, a summer intern in the office of Nonspec, a company that offers low-cost prosthetic limb systems. She even trekked to India with UMass Lowell’s B.V.B. Innovation and Entrepreneurship Program.
There was no way I was going to be an engineer.
Sofia Savoca '21
Civil Engineering
Sofia Savoca chose UMass Lowell for the opportunity to be in the Honors College and to study civil engineering. She’s found a dozen new opportunities since arriving on campus.
Opportunities, opportunities – it’s raining opportunities. They’re here if you work hard and know where to look.
Erin Monahan '19
Public Administration
Erin Monahan finds value in learning principles applicable to a wide range of arts and humanities-based organizations. She is getting professional experience as an archivist through an internship at the Thoreau Institute at Walden Woods.
The program is helping me synthesize what I’ve learned through my nonacademic and academic experiences.
Christopher Ingemi '18, '19
Civil & Environmental Engineering
A former carpenter sidelined by the recession, Christopher Ingemi went back to school at Middlesex Community College and then transferred to UML. Now, thanks to his job in a lab, he’s completed his master’s in civil engineering and found a great job as a bridge designer.
Because I had worked in construction, civil engineering seemed like a natural fit.
Lisa Degou '18
Political Science & Mathematics
As Student Government Association president, Lisa Degou meets with Chancellor Moloney every month to negotiate for student interests.
I fell in love with all the opportunities and the diversity here.
